11:00 pm
y of pomp and circumstance, what president obama said in his speech that no other president has dared to mention. in ayers to d-c, where she met up with many people from the who wanted to be good evening. i'm ken bastida. >> i'm elizabeth cook. we sent cbs5 reporter kristin ayers to d.c. where she met up with many people from the bay area who wanted to be part of it all. >> reporter: it was really a pleasure meeting people from all over the bay area out today on the national mall. they told me they felt inspired by president obama, by his speech in particular. president obama made history today speaking a three letter word that no other president has ever spoken in an inauguration address, gay. so he made history with that today and after the politics followed the parties. ♪ i'm so in love with you ♪ ♪ >> reporter: jennifer hudson sang let's stay together as the president and first lady shared the first dance at one of two inaugural balls. the events capped off an historic day in the nation's capital. >> today we experienced the
11:01 pm
majesty of our democracy. >> reporter: president obama also danced with an air force staff sergeant at the commander in chief's ball, the first lady wearing a jason wu gown once again dancing with a marine gunnery sergeant. there were four balls. four years ago there were 10. the events were scaled back, but the celebration was not. the highlight of the day came hours earlier just before noon. the president put his hand on bibles owned by president lincoln and by doctor martin luther king, jr. and recited the oath of office. >> congratulations, mr. president. [ cheering and applause ] >> reporter: standing before the crowd of hundreds of thousands, president obama spoke about inclusion, cooperation and hope. >> you and i as citizens have the obligation to shape the debates of our time, not only with the votes we cast, but with the voices we lift in defense of our most ancient values and enduring ideas. >> reporter: as he was leaving the capitol steps the president
11:02 pm
paused to take in the spectacle. i'll never see this again he said before continuing to the parade. the obamas walked part of the route to the white house, then took their place in the reviewing stand. president obama talked about gun control, social security, gay rights. these are issues that he addressed throughout the campaign. so definitely taking an aggressive stance on some of those issues and urging republicans or congress in general to join him and unify over some of those really tough issues. one thing we always love to watch when it comes to inauguration is, of course, the fashion. michelle obama certainly made it well worth it tonight at the inaugural ball ceremony. she came out wearing a designer you might recognize, jason wu. that dress showed off her toned arms. it was just stunning, a ruby velvet and chiffon dress and again made by the same guy who created the white dress that she wore at the 2009 inauguration. we also saw the first lady in a
11:03 pm
navy silk checked pattern and coat dress by thom browne with a belt from j crew. she loves to mix it up with high low along with a necklace by kathy waterson. her -- cathy waterman. those bangs across her forehead have to be the most popular in the world now. they are calling it a carly look after a model, sort of a choppy look but adorable. people have just been talking about this nonstop. i saw them. i actually saw her and mr. obama dancing today and i approved. i thought they looked great today. >> it was so much fun to watch and neat to follow the anticipation on what she'd be wearing. i want to go back to an earlier point. today the theme was can't we all just get along, togetherness. do you think that was enough to help washington keep the peace today or the folks will be at each other's throats essentially again tomorrow? >> reporter: they certainly have been at each other's
11:04 pm
throats quite a bit. when we're talking about some of these serious issues, it's hard to imagine there will be a sudden break-through based solely on a speech coming from mr. obama, although he certainly made his case today. i spoke to nancy pelosi earlier in the weekend and she said the no. 1 factor to break gridlock in washington is going to come from the constituents of congressmen and women. that may really what about makes the difference as opposed to anything that mr. obama had to say today, but i guess we'll see. if you remember nothing else tonight, remember this. we are your super bowl station and so we want to see your 49ers spirit. come on! hey, these guys are in the spirit. here's brent, irene and tatiana of fairfield doing their best kaepernicking move, very good, we approve and jess in brentwood sent this in about 45 minutes ago. clearly it's a family that is torn a bit and ryan in san jose

says he's a super fan who has had front row season tickets since 1991. wouldn't it be so we'll be showing more fan photos later in the newscast. keep them coming to news@kpix.com. would be it nice to go to the came? of course. we can only imagine how much it would cost, so we asked kiet do to crunch the numbers. >> reporter: at the 49ers official team store in palo alto, it's a question many fans haven't asked themselves in a generation. are you going to super bowl? >> unfortunately i'm not. >> reporter: you going? >> no. >> yeah, i wish. you going to give me tickets? >> reporter: why not? the laws of supply and demand will be in full effect at the superdome. the cheapest seat is $2,000. air fare from the bay area to new orleans is about 1,000. a halfway decent hotel will run you 500 a night and then there are the meals, car rental and souvenirs. even for the biggest fan it all adds up to one big maybe.
11:06 pm
>> i'm trying, man. i'm trying. >> reporter: john ziska says his dad just might pay for him to go. can i come? >> i got to go first. >> reporter: katherine calvinaro is a nurse and her boyfriend is a nursing student. both are seriously thinking about going. for two people that's close to $10,000. you are a student and you got 10 grand sitting around? >> no. but i love this team very much and it's been almost seven years. we're getting very close to it. >> reporter: in case you're wondering, $10,000 will buy you 263 nfc championship hats or 85 kaepernick jerseys, but a lot of fans told us today the next best thing to spending money on the super bowl, season tickets at the new stadium. you know what they say. if you have to ask, you can't afford it. the most expensive tickets are $300,000, about the price of a
11:07 pm
small condo here in the bay area. >> very small condo. >> kiet do, you're not going either. thank you very much. i know that you've heard it quite a few times already. it's called the har within bowl or the har within -- the har- bowl or the har brawl. so it's already started, sort of a good natured -- >> what kind of condo can you get for $300,000? >> not bad. >> maybe a sideline after the football game. if you believe jim harbaugh, he hasn't spoken to his brother john since the super bowl became a family affair. even father jack is keeping a lid on it. perhaps because they had to endure all this hype last year when john's ravens beat jim's 49ers. >> doesn't matter who the coach is or, you know, what relationship you have with somebody on the opposite side. you're trying to beat them.
11:08 pm
>> can we all agree just forget about that stuff? we did that last year, okay? it was fine. it got old last year, right? >> love you, man. >> i'm so proud of you. >> no matter how it comes out you can't change that. >> exactly right. >> every moment that you're talking about myself or john, you know, that's less time that the players are going to be talked. about. >> we had a few dreams. we had a few fights. we had a few arguments just like all brothers. we'll try to stay out of that business. we'll let the two teams duke it out as much as possible. >> we haven't spoken, a couple texts. >> so you get the point. any brotherly love will have to wait until after the super bowl, but coming up the dream that jim harbaugh has about his quarterback, colin kaepernick. >> oh, okay. >> we'll wait for that. thanks. cbs5 is your super bowl station. >> i told you. >> i know. we will have live team coverage from new orleans with reports
11:09 pm

a surfer caught on the rocks faced quite a dilemma today. climb up or jump back into the churning surf. chopper 5 was over the cliff house near ocean beach where this man was stranded with only his surf board. cbs5 reporter linda yee shows us his leap of faith. >> reporter: daniel rosen said he finally calmed down after scrambling up seal rock. >> big rip tide, really big waves. yeah, i was way out of my element. >> reporter: he was surfing with a buddy, but rosen admits he's an amateur and he couldn't handle the rip current. >> started getting sucked out to the bay, climbed onto the rock because i didn't want to go all the way out and get eaten by a shark. >> it's frightening, though, for sure that, moment when you realize there's something stronger than you pulling you out is no good. >> reporter: his friend made it to shore and called for help but the heavy surf was a problem. even rescue crews couldn't get close enough because the rip tide was so strong, so the
11:14 pm
surfer had to jump back in the water and paddle towards them. rosen was hesitant, but he did it. >> once he was padding out into the bay with the fire department, they're like you got to keep going. this is now or never. so that was definitely the hardest thing. the waves were way too big, way too big. >> reporter: rescuers helped him paddle past the break onto a waiting boat. rosen learned a tough lesson. >> beginner surfers don't surf ocean beach. >> reporter: linda yee, cbs5. among the bay area folks who went to washington for the inauguration today, a man for whom this day has special significance. cbs5 reporter kristen ayers spent some time with a civil rights pioneer. >> reporter: that's right. george carroll really has been a trailblazer in his community of richmond, california. we got a chance to speak to him. he's actually in the beginning stages of a terrible disease that is robbing him of his memories, but that hasn't stopped his family from

11:16 pm
a day that means more to them than many of us can imagine. >> it was always racism in this country. >> my mother lived and died and never was allowed to vote ever. >> reporter: a brooklyn boy who broke down racial barriers in law and politics, carroll knows what it means to be a trailblazer. he and janey's pride in the president practically bursts out of them. >> people are walking taller and holding their heads up and we are just proud. >> i never thought i would say a black president. >> reporter: on a frigid inauguration day the carrolls could not make it to the national mall to see the swearing in up close. they would happily watch from their hotel the words of dr. martin luther king ringing in her ear. >> he said i may not get there to see it, but it's coming and look at us. it's here. it is really here. >> reporter: uncertain whether her husband would remember this, but holding onto hope.
